Three concentric thin conducting spherical shells of radii R, 2R, and 3R.
Three concentric thin conducting spherical shells of radii R, 2R, and 3R.
Three thin, concentric, conducting spherical shells have radii \(R\), \(2R\), and \(3R\), and carry net charges \(+q\), \(+2q\), and \(-3q\), respectively, as shown. Assuming the electric potential is defined to be zero at infinity (\(V(\infty) = 0\)), what is the electric potential \(V\) at the surface of the middle shell at a distance \(r = 2R\) from the center?
